    I'm not defending the shooter, but I think we could all say that the none of the mob should have been there. Torching businesses that belong to people that were entirely uninvolved in the police shooting is so misguided and indefensible.
    My comment was sarcasm. The shooter was clearly defending himself. I'll defend him with regards to that. That's really the main conversation worth having tbh

    Self defense is gone once he got up and shot recklessly into the crowd. He was safe after the first couple shots.

    You got a timestamp on that happening? Because nobody who's watched that video has seen him get up and shoot recklessly into the crowd...

    I think you have to hold off on the self defense. The two people attacked him after he initially shot someone a few minutes earlier. Why did he shoot the first guy? Was it justified? If so, then maybe he has a self defense claim. But what if him shooting the first guy was not justified? What if he killed the guy in cold blood? And what if the people that tried to apprehend him did so because of the shouts that he had killed someone? If a crazy person shot someone in a school and then a bunch of people tried to jump him to stop him and he shot them, that wouldn't be self defense. So we don't know all the facts. That's why we have investigations and trials. We can't say he's guilty or innocent right now, we presume he's innocent because that's the law, but public opinion should really be mute until we know more details.

    The left just spins racial narratives to divide people.

    And the rioters weren't there looking for trouble? The truth is everything in his past doesn't point to that and it doesn't matter about his past or the past of the rioters. What matters is the incident...all the video shows that this was self defense. As for your analogy, if someone showed up at location and I had a gun...and they were dumb enough to attack me as I tried to retreat to avoid a fight..... they'd die and I'd eat a sandwich when it was over and not regret it for a second.
    Ok. So you're being wilfully ignorant, got it. Good to know you're a piece of .

    By the way, while I don't agree with the shooting of Blake, I can see why it happened, as an objective viewer I can see why it happened. But then again, some men have been killed even when following orders so who knows what was going through his head.

    Where was the self defense brigade at when trayvon martin was stalked and had to use self defense on a grown creep?
    On the other side, after the actual evidence showed he was not stalked, and in fact, left the scene, and then came back and attacked George Zimmerman, who had done a grand total of nothing to justify said attack...

    What do you call it when you attack your children's mother whom you've assaulted before, take her vehicle then put the kids whom you don't have custody off in it, and try to drive away. Attempted kidnapping or KIDNAPPING? Also he is a convicted weapons charges and sex offender.
    I thought he was just a sweet church going young man.. He was helping elderly cross the street when the Cops showed up.. I saw it on MSNBC..

    Democrat politicians with no evidence claim people are "white supremacists". They are push race dividing narratives in pursuit of their political agenda. Shameful.

    Ultimately all those claims are indeed irrelevant to self defense.

    Also, why are all the fat pussy kid defenders skirting around the fact that he was brandishing a firearm that he had illegally?

    Fox news give you that stat? You honestly believe that when cops have been shown to lie repeatedly even when there's video evidence to the contrary? Come on man. Just look at what happened with the Raps Masai.

    Wrong, asshole. The point is the kid drove in from out of town with a firearm he had on him illegally, killed two people, and shot another. You can't claim self defense when you're the one with a gun and went looking for a fight. That's about the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

    I dont watch any US news program. someone posted it on twitter from washingtonpost. Oh and I dont have a horse in this race. If the kid is found guilty I don't care if he goes to prison.

    You damn well can claim defence when you're chased by rioters...hit with a skate board...and have a gun pointed at you... especially when there is zero evidence that he went looking for a fight.

    Interviews with the Kenosha shooter, before the shooting:

    https://www.redstate.com/nick-arama/...e-rittenhouse/

    I think people are jumping to conclusions about "white supremacist" and "looking for a fight". From the article,

    "I have him on video offering medical help to BLM rioters

    It’s such a weird world where we have black white supremacists

    Jewish Nazis, and now white supremacists who offer aid to Black Lives Matter & kill white people "

    The league has bent over backwards for BLM. The players had numerous chances to opt out.. They agreed to finish the season.. And Fans just want Basketball.
    Meh, putting BLM on the courts and letting players take a knee isn't really bending over. They did vow to donate $300 million over 10 years to black communities but that isn't BLM.

    If the players chose not to play, then what can the NBA really do? Trying to compel them to play would lead to a backlash. The playoffs are in jeopardy but it has to be their decision as to whether they play or not. I think the majority of fans will be disappointed but understand.

    Yes, but he was there with a gun he owned illegally. If you crash without a license that certainly changes the dynamics of the case, does it not? For some reason you're ignoring the fact that he shouldn't have been there. As I've said before, two wrongs don't make a right. But this kid went above property damage, he killed two people, people that he went looking for.
